THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FAILURE.

If the Debt Commission fails 10 make
settlement. Of course the Democratic
party will be expected to ratify the action
Of the commission but from the varying
fortunes Of the Democracy Of Virginia
in the last fifteen years it is fair to con
cludc that a majority cannot be mustered
for political battle unless the colors are
in good hands and the cause such an one as
will carry conviction of right to the
hearts and minds Of the people.
We pointed out at first the necessity of
a frank and sincere treatment Of this
most important matter, and such a course
on the part Of our own commissioners as
should leave no room for criticism
And it has been plain to all clear
headed men in the state that this oPpor-
tunity Of settling the debt involves the
success Of the Democratic party.
The point Of discussion between the
State and the creditors narrowed itself
down to a show OF figures, and critical
discussion of them. We have no idea
vet what is the estimate made by the
creditors or what the figure, displayed
by the committee Of he Legislature.
But if the commission fails TO effect q
settlement, there will be a popular dis
cussiou Of the transactions, and if our
own side does not stand squarely, and
without possibility of contradiction, the
position Of the Democratic party will be
very shakey
Doubtless the politicians idea that
the State is in favor of population is
founded on very good information. but
when il comes to The test il viii be
found that a reputation party in Nir-
ginia cannot get votes enough to carry
an election If there is party that OPP
poses population.
The responsibility, therefore. of "a
failure to settle this time cannot be
shifted.
We should certainly. as heretofore, do
All in our power for the Dcmocraticp party
but like thousands of other Democrats,
we would not go for reputation or even
